Verse 1
God of the fertile fields
shaper of earth that yields
Our daily bread
Forth from Thy bounteous hand
Come gifts Thy love has planned
That all in every land
Be clothed and fed
Verse 2
We would Thy stewards true
Holding in trust from you
All that you give;
Help us in love to share
Teach us like You to care
for people everywhere,
that all may live.
Verse 3
As grows the hidden seed
To fruit that serves our need
your reign yet grows
So let our toil be used
No gift of yours abused
No humble task refused
Thy love bestows
Verse 4
God of the countryside
Dear to the Christ who died
To make us one
We pledge our lives anew
in faithful love to you;
guide all we say and do,
till life is done.
